Movies both Made By & Starring Brittany Shoot

Posted on June 13, 2008 by michael

Five Lumières, two by DVblog’s own Brittany Shoot and three by
Andreas Haugstrup Pedersen with Brittany in the starring role.
They’re all great, but in particular I love the Meeting from Above piece
which is extraordinarily rich in color & incident in the kind of micro
observational way that the Lumières encapsulate.
In fact if Brakhage hadn’t got to it first, in a somewhat
grimmer context, The Act of Seeing with One’s Own Eyes would make a
tremendous motto for the Lumière project…

David Yun – A Taste of Home (2007, 4.9MB, 2:19)

When David Yun went home to care for his terminally
ill mother, he found himself as disconnected and
alienated from his small hometown as he had always
been. Clip from Yun’s seven and a half minute video.
Beautiful footage and a voice-over that never becomes
too precious or pretentious.
Strangely (or perhaps not), I have family from
that exact small town, Livonia, Michigan, USA, a Detroit
suburb.

“Bumped into a street opera singer in San Francisco who saw my
camera and said, “Of course you can film me.” He didn’t know who I was,
but I told him afterwards and still gave me permission to show, so here is
live from Sutter Street, Robert Close!!!!”
